    Anyone else notice that the JTG lads have been quiet recently? Site hasn't been updated in a week and a half or so which is unusual for them, especially with DCM last weekend. Wonder are they just on a break or are they letting it slide?

    Cathal is currently in NYC for work on the marathon over there so I imagine he will have material come early next week. Not sure about the rest of the guys.

    Real pity the podcasts, was great stuff.

    It all takes time and money.

    Had the same thought myself. Very strange that they've been so quiet, especially when they had the big build up to the marathon with the weekly advice and then they had no coverage on the marathon whatsoever.

    I think the boys are pretty much at the end of their tether.

    They put a big shoulder to the wheel and by the sounds of it have started to run of steam.

    It's not like they were making any money off it!

    Nay that's a bit harsh. Time moves on, they had a good run of it and did a fantastic service for all of us. They admitted during the summer it would start to wind down as they were becoming busy with other stuff (aka the big bad world ha), I was sort of hoping afew more would step up but in fairness it's a big commitment.

    The podcasts were so good. The lads were passionionate, knowledgable insightful, well connected, funny and presented a great show. It's a real pity they don't do them any more but good to hear the guys involved have made a career out of what they did as a hobby.

    I think there's probably more passionate athletics guys'n gals out there that could fill the podcast void - it's sorely missed.
